It says it's EASY no it's not I'm trying to learn how to shade and highlight it's horrible it doesn't really explain clearly I mean one second it's a simple drawing the next it's complex and made me feel like I wasn't even good at drawing DON'T get this!It's a waste of money.

This volume is great for the tyro or amateur. I completed a jellyfish, lavender plant, chain, mushroom, owl, eye, etc. I love how any reasonable person can sit at the table & draw what is in. I definitely recommend.

It really does make drawing look so simple. I have been trying to find the basic shape of things to get better and this book really breaks the process down step-by-step. A great resource.
